How to fix Windows 10 Error Code: 80246010, 80070003

-

A few days ago I posted a video on my YouTube channel showing people how to overcome two error codes that were stopping people upgrading to Windows 10. It just so turns out that quite a few people were encountering the same issue so I thought I would share this video with you just in case you were having the same problems.

 
If the video solution doesn’t work then please see the comments section for additional solutions.

Capturing EAPOL and RADIUS Using Wireshark

-
Image
In this article we are going to take a look at how to capture Extensible Authentication Protocol Over LAN (EAPOL) and Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) packets using Wireshark. This article can be useful for troubleshooting 802.1x within your environment and can also be used for learning purposes. The following topology has been used to gather the required output for this article. Note: This article will only cover the switch configurations that are required to gather EAPOL and RADIUS configuration. Overview of the Topology The supplicant is configured to perform 802.1x using EAP-TLS as the authentication method The user certificate on the supplicant will be used for authentication The supplicant has Wireshark installed Cisco ISE is used for authentication and authorisation The supplicant is assigned to VLAN 10 upon authentication and all other endpoint ports are assigned to VLAN 99 Sniffer device is running Wireshark in order to capture RADIUS flows via SPAN 802.1x ...

Kali Linux :: CAM Table Overflow Attack Demonstration

Image
As part of my on-going studying for the CCNA Security 210 – 260 certification I have been exploring different types of network attacks, one of which is CAM table overflow attacks. In this article I would like to share what I have learnt and provide a demonstration of the attack carried out in a lab environment. To understand my demonstration, you first need to understand how a CAM table overflow attack works and what happens as a result of the attack.   Switches build Content Addressable Memory (CAM) tables based on mac-addresses and port numbers. When a switch receives a frame it checks the table to see if the source mac-address is already known, if the source mac-address is unknown the switch will add the mac-address to the table along with the port number. The switch then checks the destination layer two frame and if no entry exists the switch broadcasts the frame out of all ports except the port in which the frame was received. Presuming the destination mac-address wants to res...

Demystifying IBNS 2.0 Configuration

Image
In this article I would like to go through a typical Identity Based Networking Services (IBNS 2.0) configuration, breaking down each so that we can better understand the configuration. While there are many configuration elements of secure network access, this article will focus on the Cisco Common Classification Policy Language (C3PL) configurations. I must admit, when I first got a glance of some IBNS 2.0 configuration, I was a little taken back at the amount of configuration. However, after reading up about it, and refreshing parts of my CCNP R&S skills, I was able to understand how IBNS 2.0 configuration comes together. This article will NOT focus on use cases for using IBNS 2.0, however, I would like to point out some good, online documentation that will provide you with some useful information. IBNS 2.0 at a glance Identity Based Networking Command Reference Guide Cisco Live IBNS 2.0 Lab Guide Configuring Identity Service Templates Configuring IEEE 802.1x Port-Based Authent...

Working with Certificate Revocation Lists and Cisco ISE

-
Image
Throughout my time working with Cisco ISE, I’ve come across a few different errors when configuring ISE to perform Certificate Revocation Lists (CRL) lookups using Microsoft’s Public Key Infrastructure (PKI). In this article I would like to show you how we can avoid CRL download issues that could ultimately stop an endpoint from authenticating onto a network when configured for Network Authentication Control (NAC). CRL checking is useful for checking of expired certificates and when an environment has Cisco Identity Services Engine deployed for secure network access, this can be useful for ensuring revoked digital certificates are not reused when they’ve been revoked. CRL lookups can be costly to your network because of the lookups that are performed and Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) can be used as a more efficient way to check revoked certificates. However for the purpose of this article we will focus only on Certificate Revocation Lists. In this article I will demonstrate...

How to Install a CA-Signed Certificate to Firepower Management Centre

-
Image
In this article we will take a look at how to generate a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) for your Firepower Management Centre (FMC) before taking a look at how we then complete the request and install the CA-signed certificate. In order to complete the above, you will need access to the following: FMC with Admin rights CA Server with Admin rights The following hardware and software is used for this demonstration: FMCv version 6.5 Microsoft Server 2019 Generate the CSR on the FMC 1. Once logged into the FMC, navigate to System > Configuration > HTTPS Certificate 2. Click 'Generate New CSR' 3. Enter the relevant details for your organization. The device name should already be pre-populated within the Common Name field. Once the fields are populated, click 'Generate' . 4. When the box appears with the Base-64 Encoded CSR, copy the text into a notepad. 5. With access to your CA-Server, access the relevant location where certificates are generated. In this example w...
